Even Mrs. Stono was diverted for the moment. Cus, tho barker. also hires David Nash, athlete and j sprang to the edge of the platrorm student, for summer work. When :as a red-faced, disheveled woman Carson mukes remarks about Da- Ifought her way through tho crowd vid's friendship Tor Sally, David ! to tho platform, hits him u crushing blow. They "What Beems to be the trouble, run away and Join a carnival, Da-madara?" Gus demanded loudly, vid as cook's helper and Sally as I "Who took your purse." He "Princess Lalla," crystal gazer. Capital City, location of the or plumage, Sally Is recognized when the orphans troop in, chaperoned by a beautiful "Lady Bountiful." Gun, the barker, diverts attention and Sally is saved. Sally learns from Arthur Vun Home, handsome easterner, who annoys SnlV with his attentions that the "Lady Jloun-: tiful" Is Enid Parr, wire or wealthy New Yorker. In another slate Sally feels more secure and she and David gn about (he town streets without fear of police. David gives her a sap phire engagement ring. Ono night as Sally sits before the crystal reading fortunes, she Is stunned to see coming toward her tho stiff cor seted figuro which she knew In the Btate orphanage, Mrs. Stone, the matron. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XXVI Sally felt as if her flesh were shriveling upon her bones. An dual numbness spread from her shoulders to her fingertips, In an ticipation of the shock of feeling the Orphans' Home matron's grip upon them. How many, many times In her 12 years In the or phanage had Bho been roughly jerked to her feet by those broad, heavy hands, when she had been caught In some minor infringement of Mrs. Ktone.'s stern rules! Her hands, Instinctively claflped so that her precious engagement ring might bo hidden from thoso glmloMiko gray eyes, were so rigid that Sally wondered Irrelevantly If they would ever come to life again, to curve their fingers about tho made crystal. But of courso nho would never "read" tho crys tal again. She was caught, caught! 'Aro you deaf?" Mrs. tone's harsh voice pierced her numbed hearing as if from a great distance. "I want my fortune told. Pvo paid mv quarter and I don't Intend to; dlllv-dally around here all day." The rello was so terrific that the girl's bodv began to tremble all over, but rigidity of terror had mercllly relaxed, so that she could , lift her shaking hands. Cius, tho barker, who always re-, mained upon thn platform during I her "rnndlngs.' had long ago ar-j ranged a code signal of distress, and now she gave it. Her hands went up to the ridiculous crown of fako jewels that banded her longH black hair and adjusted It, tipping 11 first to the right and then to the left, as If to easo the pressure of Its weight upon hor forehead. That vory nntural gesture told Ous more plainly than words that "PrlnceBS Lolla" was in danger nml asked lilni to use his ingenuitv to rescue her. There wns no nood of her to lift her eys to him, Jerk ily hor hands enmo down, hovered over tho crystnl, and before Mrs. Stone could voice another harsh cnmnlaint. the Bine-song volco which "Princess Lnlla used wns requesting "zo lndee" to sit down In tho chair opposite. Put what should she tell Mrs. Stone, with whoso personality and history sho had been familiar for 12 yoars? If she dared to rend "past, proBont nnd future" with nnv deitreo of accuracy, the matron would be startled into observing tho "seeross" with thoso gimlet; eyes or ner. ir sne went to wme of the mark In generalities, Mrs. Slono was entirely cnnable of rais ing n disturbance which would ruin business for thn rest of tho day. "Well, whnt do you boo If any thing?' Mrs. Stone demanded an grllv. That gavo Sally her cuo. Bend ing low over the crystnl, so that, her face wan within a few inches of that of the woman who ant op reached a helping hand to the wo man who was struggling to get, to tho steps leading to the platform "It was her!" Tho "country wo man," whom Sally had recognized instantly as a 'schiller," an em ploye of the circus, extremely use ful In just such emergencies, shook an angry forefinger in Mrs. Stone's astounded fuce. "She's got It right there In her bands! The gall of hor! Standing right by me, she was, before she come up hero to get her fortune told. Stole my purse, she did, right outa my hands " "This is my purse!" Mrs. Stone shrilled, her face suddenly strut ted with blood. "I never heard of anything so brazen in my life! It's my purse and I can prove it is." She turned menacingly to ward Ous, who was looking from ono angry woman to another as if greatly embarrassed and per plexed. "Reckon I'd belter call the con stable and lot him settle this thing," ho said apologetically. "I'm a deppity sheriff," a man called loudly from the audience. "M.'ke way for the law!" Thi awe-stricken and happily thrilleO crowd parted obediently to let a fat man with a silver star on his coat lapel pass majestically to ward the platform. Sally know him, too, as a "schiller" whose princi pal job with tho carnival was to impersonate an officer of tho law when trouble arose between the "rubes" and nny member of the carnival's big family. "Come along quiet, ladles!" the fat man admonished tho two wo men briskly. "We'll settle this lit tle spat outside, all nlco and peace able, I hope." Tho Inst word was spoken to Mrs. Stono with signifi cant emphasis. "This Is an outrago!" the or phanage matron raged, but tho "deplty sheriff" gave her no op portunity to say more, either in her own defense or to Sally. (Jus. the barker, bent over the trembling girl while the crowd was silll enthralled over the spectacle of two apparently respectable middle-aged women being dragged out of tho tent under arrest. "Better beat it, kid. The dame's hep to you. Reckon she's tho Or phans' Home matron you been toll ing us about. Here, take this " and he thrust a few crumpled bills into her hand "and don't ever let on to Pop Pybeo Hint I helped you get uwny. Goodby, honey. Good luck. You're a great kid. ... All right, folks! Excitement's all over! It gives me great pleasure to in troduce to you the smallest and prettiest little lady In tho world. Wo call her 'Pltty Sing,' and 1 don't reckon I hnvo to tell you why " Five minutes later Sally was cowering against tho rear wall of Kdtlle Cobb's gambling-wheel con cession, pouring out her story to David, to whom she hod fled os soon as Gus had -tolled tho crowd away from her platform. "And sho recognized mo, Da vid!" the girl Bobbed, the palms of her trembling hands pressed against her face. "I was so star tled when she toro my voil off that I couldn't pretend any longer. As soon as she gets away from the 'schlllers' she'll set the real con stable on my trail. Gus told mo i to beat It oh, David! What's go ing to heconte of me and you? Oh!" And she choked on the sobs that were tearing at her throat. "Why, darling child, we're going lo 'heat it,' ns Gus advises. Of course! We've 'bent It' together before. Listen, honey!

That the threats hnve been effec tive Is shown by the fact that this stato holds tho nlniirn area produc tion record of tho world. This romnrkiible agricultural phenomenon is rovenled In a survey of tho alfalfa situation Just com pleted by the Dlue Valley Cream ery Institute of Chicago, which for four years has been organizing 10,000-acro alfalfa clubs through out the Mississippi valley. ' Alfalfa In Utah is grown at an altitude of from 700 to 650 feet where temperatures from 10 to 30 dogrees below zero are common in winter and whore irrigation is nec essary. When the alfalfa seed growers find that the plant Is not producing the seed ns it should, they Trith- raw ns "urniK supply" and the piant, teeiing that Its life is at stake, starts to seed.
